That was a war but sort of an odd war. Rafael Ruelas had guts. Everytime Freddie connected flush down goes Rafael. Pops back up and took control midfight up to the last round when Pendleton knocked him down again. There were points taken away. That was at the Pond in Anaheim i believe. The whole arena wanted Rafael to win and it really started to bother Freddie. He was frustrated, He was stick out his tongue repeatedly. There was alot going on but Joe Goosen hair was on point. That was a lengendary hair nite. Seriously though that is the only time i can recall the Champion or anyone score 5 knockdowns and lose a decision but wasnt a robbery.
Look up Steve Johnston vs He was 1990 Network attraction. Not sure what belt he had but he was in some tough fights. Especially Gonzelez
Stevie Johnston vs Angel Manfredy was a good fight. Pretty one sided in favor of Stevie, but still a fast-paced, high contact, highly skilled fight.
